The formability of a Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 bulk metallic glass has been investigated in the present study in relation to the heating rate. A series of extrusion tests after rapid heating has been performed in a laboratory scale together with sheet forming tests after slow heating for comparison purpose. The basic processing map based on dynamic materials model (DMM) and compression test data has been utilized to evaluate feasible forming conditions. The macroscopic formability, classified by fully formed, partially formed or a catastrophic fracture, is found to have a good correspondence with the iso-efficiency contour in the processing map. The region of high power dissipation efficiencies with η>0.8 is found to be broaden by avoiding crystallization events due to reduced exposure time in extrusion process with a faster heating rate.

Structural relaxation and nanomechanical behaviors of La65Al14Ni5Co5Cu9.2Ag1.8 bulk metallic glass (BMG) with a low glass transition temperature during annealing have been investigated by calorimetry and nanoindentation measurement. The enthalpy release of this metallic glass is deduced by annealing near glass transition. When annealed below glass transition temperature for 5 min, the recovered enthalpy increases with annealing temperature and reaches the maximum value at 403 K. After annealed in supercooled liquid region, the recovered enthalpy obviously decreases. For a given annealing at 393 K, the relaxation behaviors of La-based BMG can be well described by the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) function. The hardness, Young’s modulus, and serrated flow are sensitive to structural relaxation of this metallic glass, which can be well explained by the theory of solid-like region and liquid-like region. The decrease of ductility and the enhancement of homogeneity can be ascribed to the transformation from liquid-like region into solid-like region and the reduction of the shear transition zone (STZ).

The influence of annealing on the structural changes and the mechanical properties of Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 (Vit-1) bulk metallic glass was systematically studied by varying the annealing times at 703 K. The evolution of the structural state at a relatively high temperature within the supercooled liquid region was studied by thermal analysis, x-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, extended x-ray absorption fine structure, and dilatometric measurements. The deformation behavior and the mechanical properties were also examined by carrying out hardness and compression tests for the specimens annealed for various times.
